Navigation Technologies, a provider of digital maps for vehicle navigation, Internet/wireless
applications and business solutions announced that voice transcriptions
of its United States NAVTECH map database are now available. NAVTECH says its Voice
Data increases the functionality of navigation systems by reducing recognition
complexities, improving output accuracy and expanding the system use beyond
basic commands. NAVTECH Voice Data is currently available for the company's
map databases for Italy, Germany and the United Kingdom.
NAVTECH Voice Data includes transcriptions for Street Names,
Administrative Areas, Points of Interest (POI) and general data such as POI
category names and restaurant types. In addition, the same set of data
transcriptions can be used with either Automated Speech Recognition or Text-
to-Speech technology.
Using Text-to-Speech and Automated Speech Recognition technology to
interpret abbreviations, alternate pronunciations and other variants, NAVTECH
Voice Data brings a higher degree of precision to navigation applications.
